Jerry Pinto's latest non-fiction book, "A Good Life: The Power of Palliative Care," explores an inclusive approach to medical care for serious illnesses. The book uses patient, doctor, and caregiver stories to highlight palliative care's focus on enhancing quality of life and pain relief, rather than solely on cure. Pinto aims to dispel the misconception that palliative care is exclusively for cancer patients or the terminally ill, emphasizing its broader applicability and potential to offer warmth and protection, akin to its Latin root 'pallium'.
